(54) | Thermographic system to check and prevent fires in a vehicle |
(57) The thermographic system to check and prevent fires in a vehicle comprises at least
a plurality of sensors (1) held up by an arch structure (2) and apt to detect the
temperature of specific points of the vehicle (3) and a logic control unit (4), connected
to the above mentioned sensors (1), which generates at least an alarm signal if the
temperature detected by at least one of the sensors (1) exceeds a pre-set value, which
changes (or can change) according to the point of the vehicle (3) checked by the sensor
(1) that detected the anomalous temperature. If the thermographic system is placed near a fixed way, further sensors (11) fitted into the ground (5) allow to check even the lower side of the vehicle (3). |
